From the large front deck, partially covered for year-round enjoyment, mornings begin with coffee in the mountain air and evenings often carry the familiar sound of church bells drifting through town. Inside, the home opens to an easy, inviting flow between the living, kitchen, and dining areas - comfortable for everyday living and equally suited to weekend guests. Lovingly maintained over the years, the home has been thoughtfully updated and expanded while preserving the warmth and character that give a classic mountain cottage its lasting appeal.

Just moments away, The Village Green brings year-round enjoyment with concerts, seasonal events, community gatherings, and open green space right in the center of town. Beyond the immediate convenience of village life, you are also just a short drive from the dining, shopping, and cultural appeal of Highlands, as well as the boating, paddling, fishing, and lakeside recreation in nearby Glenville. For buyers who value privacy without giving up proximity, this is a rare opportunity to own a true in-town Cashiers cottage - full of character, quietly tucked away, and exceptionally well-positioned.

Set within this private 430-acre community at the base of Whiteside Mountain, the land reflects everything buyers come to expect at this elevation - around 3,300 feet - mature hardwood forest, natural rock features, and a peaceful mountain backdrop with strong upside for selective clearing.

Ownership in Holly Berry Estates includes deeded access to two private lakes, reserved exclusively for residents and ideal for fishing, swimming, canoeing, and other non-motorized boating.
